Jacob Rees-Mogg and Priti Patel tweet support for offshoot of US group accused of anti-Islam views.....

A number of Conservative MPs have praised the work of a new UK rightwing youth pressure group that is said to have links to far-right conspiracy theorists, and has in the US been accused of anti-Islam views and connections to racism.

On Sunday, MPs including Jacob Rees-Mogg and Priti Patel tweeted supportive messages for Turning Point UK, the offshoot of a controversial organisation established in the US.

The UK outpost is headed by George Farmer, a Conservative donor and son of a Tory peer, who has been pictured socialising with Paul Joseph Watson, a senior editor at the far-right conspiracy theory website Infowars, and frequently retweets him. Watson has also praised Turning Point.

Infowars has argued the 7 July 2005 attacks in London and the 2012 Sandy Hook primary school massacre were faked. Its founder, Alex Jones, is being sued by bereaved Sandy Hook parents.

UK Jewish groups have previously criticised UKIP for allying with Watson and Infowars over concerns and allegations that the website also spreads antisemitic conspiracy theories.

Farmer has also used Twitter to question Islam and call Jeremy Corbyn “Jew-hating Jeremy”. Other messages called the London mayor, Sadiq Khan, a “Grade A twat” and a “virtue signalling cuck”, and called two US Democratic politicians “retards”.

On Islam, Farmer tweeted: “Can anyone explain to me why you need so much protection when you convert out of the religion of peace? Asking for a friend.”

Farmer, whose father is Michael Farmer, a multimillionaire financier and longtime Tory donor, has also given money to the party, and attended fundraising events.

Several Conservative MPs have approvingly retweeted the group’s initial message. “This could be huge,” said Steve Baker. Patel, a former international development secretary, said: “A new generation standing up for political & economic freedoms & Conservative values & beliefs. Fantastic!”

Another MP, Bernard Jenkin, said: “This is the future”; while Rees-Mogg said: “The left has no monopoly on the ‘young’.”

Among other people to praise the establishment of Turning Point UK was For Britain, the anti-Islam party set up by the former Ukip leadership contender Anne Marie Waters, which said it hoped to support the group.

Always nice to see who Tory MPs support, who funds them, and to get a good idea where the 'Labour and Corbyn are anti-Semites' garbage comes from.

Or, more to the point, do you support Turning Point UK, said to have links to far-right conspiracy theorists, and which has in the US been accused of anti-Islam views and connections to racism, along with many Tory MPs ?

Nadine Dorries has been accused of thinking all 'brown' women look the same. Previously she commented that Chuka Umunna looked like Chris Eubank (!?) & now has confused political commentator Ash Sarkar with politician Fazia Shaheen. Does the Tory Party have a problem with racism?

Islamic people make up such a small amount of people that live in this country, even London is majority white and non Muslim!

In London, and i speak from knowing one Muslim neighbour and her partner, they embrace Western values, albeit they are younger.

What kind of redneck fascist dumb fuck site do you get your information from?

We already have sharia. it is not a foreign concept. We call it case law in scotland, in england it is common law. though to have an ecclesiastical commission ("and courts are illegal because they are pernicious.") within english sovereign territories is unlawful. all You need do is read the bill of rights act 1688. I am sure I head a mp say recently the uk has no constitution? which We all know is nonsense!

If he / she said that England has no WRITTEN constitution, then they are 100% correct. We never have had one.

It's a fair question. Support for the death penalty for apostasy is still remarkably high in the Islamic world.

Funny though, how we expect 'them' to respect all of our customs, laws and traditions when 'they' come here, but are oft intent on interfering with theirs in other countries.

It is nice to think that with the world becoming smaller and the spread of ideas and interests across the globe perhaps we will moderate behaviour in all extremes - ours as well as 'theirs'. As an example, in America you can be executed with an IQ not much higher than your shoe size, especially if you're black.
